  • receiving data from one or more data sources at the server, wherein the server is configured to create a data polyarchy;

    facilitating graph creation to represent elastic inter-object connections at the server, wherein at least one object represented once by the inter-object connections participates in one or more of the hierarchies of inter-object relationships, the one or more of the hierarchies being defined by data defined at any point in time by respective ones of the objects represented in the inter-object relationships, the data being independent of a static naming convention.
